Four systems that cannot talk to each other do not make a security system

Most organisations do not set out to end up there. It happens one project at a time. Evolution exists to solve that, for organisations where security failure is not an acceptable outcome.

Access control on a controlled door

An installer fits equipment. An integrator owns the outcome.

If your provider is an installer

  • Takes a specification and fits the equipment
  • Hands you a certificate at handover

That may be all you need. For a multi-site estate under regulatory scrutiny, it is not.

If your provider is an integrator

  • Establish the operational requirement first. What the system must achieve, for whom, under what conditions, and against what risk. Equipment selection follows from that.
  • Design across systems, not within them. Access control, video, intruder detection and visitor management as one estate with one policy.
  • Own the interfaces. Integrations between platforms, and with your HR, IT and building management systems, are the part that fails. They are ours to make work.
  • Stay independent in specification. Employee-owned and not tied to a manufacturer, with accreditation across the major platforms.
  • Take through-life responsibility. Maintenance, support, firmware lifecycle, and a plan for what happens when a platform reaches end of life.

Our security systems integration solutions

Video surveillance and CCTV systems

Enterprise video surveillance and commercial CCTV designed against operational requirement, not camera count. GDPR compliant, BS EN 62676 aligned, with analytics validated rather than assumed.

Access control systems

Multi-site access control in a single platform, with one identity, one policy and one audit trail. OSDP-secured, encrypted credentials, integrated with HR so leavers lose access.

Mobile access credentials

Mobile credentials deployed as part of the estate rather than as an app. Apple and Google Wallet, vendor platforms, and a clear view on what the Aliro open standard means for what you buy next.

Intruder alarm systems

Commercial intruder and hold-up alarm systems to PD 6662:2017 and BS EN 50131, graded against real risk, and integrated so the system sets against occupancy.

Visitor management systems

Visitors and contractors as controlled identities with real permissions, real expiry and a place on the evacuation roll-call.
